"Sneak a Peak"
Franklin Field, University of Pennsylvania
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Built in 1895. The oldest stadium in the country still operational for football. Former home of the Philadelphia Eagles. But most importantly...the hallowed grounds where Philly fans earned the top spot on the "Naughty List" when we booed and pelted Santa Claus with snowballs in 1968.
FYI...he deserved it.
Here's where I "link up" today.

What a fabulous shot! Were you being naughty again??
ReplyDeleteGreat use of light!
ReplyDeleteI wanted so badly to go to Penn and play at Franklin Field. I ended up at Lehigh, and had only one away game at Penn during 4 years and 2 sports and wouldn't you know I had stitches in my leg and couldn't play. I was so bummed! Awesome shot!
ReplyDeleteOh Philly sports fans (-:

ReplyDeleteI'll have to ask my dad if he remembers the Santa "booing" incident! I watched some Eagles game in that stadium - my clearest memory is when my sheltered childhood mind was blown - on a very very cold day - by three men in green body paint, no shirts and full of lotsa booze!
ReplyDeletePoor Santa. LOL. Awesome shot and I love the flare!
ReplyDeleteNice shot. So unusual. Poor Santa. #MYSUNDAYPHOTO
